Our Candles

Our hand-poured candles are crafted with 100% American-grown soy wax. We use eco-friendly candle dyes that may naturally fade when exposed to direct sunlight. Our fragrances are formulated in-house and are Prop 65 compliant, vegan, and cruelty-free. We never use phthalates or parabens. Each finished candle is thoughtfully topped with a trio of organic and/or wild-harvested botanicals.

Our Philosophy

Gnostic Apothecary Co. creates handcrafted goods that bring together nature and spirituality. We believe in sustainable spell crafting through the use of handmade objects, reusable packaging, and responsible harvesting practices. Every item is handcrafted with its intended purpose in mind. Whether created for atmospheric enjoyment, ritual practice, or simply to bring a little magic into everyday life, each piece is made with intention, care, and respect for the natural world.

Candle Care

Before each burn: Trim the wick to approximately ¼ inch. This helps maintain an even flame and reduces the chance of soot.

For the first burn: Allow the surface of the wax to melt completely to the edges of the container. This establishes the candle’s “burn memory” and helps prevent tunneling during future burns.

For the best results: Avoid burning your candle for more than 3–4 hours at a time. Always keep the candle within sight while burning and follow standard candle-safety practices.
